In collaboration with Shift and UN Human Rights, UN Global Compact is organizing a three-part Academy Deep Dive Series designed to help UN Global Compact Participants develop an actionable plan to identify, prevent, mitigate and account for their human rights impacts.
The first session in the series takes place on 4 May at 4 PM EET. It will help participants figure out what risks to people their company could be connected to and which ones they should focus on first.
Please enrol into each session on the Academy. You can find instructions for creating an Academy account here in English and here in Finnish.
